Its understood the dude is decent and can perform at the highest level on occasions but you guys would want Liverpool to continue with him beside VVD?

Yes, he has been a beast ever since he paired up with VVD. When Lovren-VVD partnership came only United conceded less goals than Liverpool in the PL. Lovren in the right system and with an actual DM in front of the defence is a good defender. If you put Lovren in the right set up he performs, if you leave him exposed for players to run at him he's terrible. He is also dominant in the air so with him, VVD & Fabinho we should be really great at set pieces next season. And what's also great he is a big game player, pocketed Ronaldo in the CL final and pocketed Kane in the WC semi's. If he can continue to play in this form I absolutely want him and VVD to start.

Liverpool Since Van Dijk’s debut: - The most PL Clean Sheets - The most UCL Clean Sheets - Conceded 10 goals in 15 games (Joint-Best with Man City) - Conceded at a rate of 0.66 (~25 GA over a whole season) - And now have signed a top class GK + Fabinho.
